SONG OF THE DAY:
Snoop Dogg + Dam-Funk, “Faden Away”

Here’s a solid way to end the day: “Faden Away,” the years-in-the-making studio debut of Dam-Funk and Snoop Dogg, who have adopted the apropos name Seven Days of Funk for their first Stones Throw single. Available to stream below, its La Brea-thick synth lines and groove-riding hooks are clearly a little less impromptu than the performance the pair threw together a couple years back, and hopefully a sign of something more significant dropping before the year’s over.

Check out the only-in-L.A. vibes of “Faden Away” below, along with footage from their “Dogg House” set two years ago…

UPDATE: The ‘7 Days of Funk’ album now has a release date and official trailer. Check out more details here.
